Why'd you put wheels on? The hand-holds make it so easy to launch, even solo.

Landing without grass IS the problem and touch and goes are kind of hard.

Another Ripmax Rapier on wheels! Its fun with wheels on the Rapier, but i would prefer retracts, as these wheels/wires are creating a lot of drag. Engine: SC.53 2-stroke, turning a 11x6.
